Children return to school in a village near the city of Najaf in central
Iraq on April 4, 2003, for the first time since the war started. Soldiers
from the 422nd Civil Affairs Battalion helped cleanup the school that
was damaged by artillery fire. The soldiers also took money out of
their own pockets to pay the teacher several months salary in advance.
